We won’t even get into the long history of who invented the bike, but let’s just say — we are so glad they did!  Oh yes, neighbors–it’s Bike Month. And this month, it’s all about those two-wheeled beauties.

So stop in at our two Myrtle Avenue bicycle shops (Urban Cycles and Red Lantern Bicycles & Cafe) for discounts and events, and stop in at the southeast corner of Myrtle and Vanderbilt to register your bike at our Bike Registration event with the 88th precinct on Thursday, May 21.

Hope to see you on the Avenue!

Urban Cycles has a big sale going on for the entire month of May:  Bianchi Bikes and Bern helmets. Bern helmets are 17% off for one or the more the buy, the more you save. 23% off for two. Stop to browse their other bikes and accessories and view their busy workshop too.

Urban Cycles is located at 478 Myrtle Avenue between Washington and Hall, (347) 783-0478

Every 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month, Red Lantern Bicycles & Cafe will host its popular Gold Sprint, competitors will ride ’til they drop.  Stop in for the fun–and to grab a cold brew or smoothie from Red Lantern’s Cafe or check out their wide selection of bikes and accessories while you are at it.

Red Lantern Bicycles & Cafe is located at 345 Myrtle Avenue between Carlton & Adelphi, (347) 889-5338
